Hello, i just bought the game a few hours ago so i’m pretty much a little rookie.
So the game downloaded, i logged in, it was all smooth. And then i was facing the select world screen. I wanted a world with high population and in Europe, so i choose one of those worlds. However, the world i joined in, was DE (German). And quite frankly i don’t know german language =/
It’s not a big deal, the game is in English but it’s an MMO so communicating is a must. And since i don’t know german i can’t communicate with other players, well there probably are some english folk on the world, but i haven’t seen any. I don’t blame anyone but myself that i was stupid enough to choose a world which has players speaking a language i don’t know. I don’t like this because i feel isolated and alone in a big world. And exploring as everybody (well mostly) speaks in a tongue i don’t know feels really uncomfratable, like i’m not where i’m supposed to be.
So can i ask to be switched to a realm where it’s highly populated, english language and in Europe without paying anything? I know it sounds naive but i’m a raw rookie and made a stupid mistake. So if a moderator decides to transfer my account to another world i would be very thankful, if not, no harm done.
Yes, you can transfer to another server if you delete all your characters. Make sure to put all non-soulbound items in the bank, as the bank will transfer with you. Good luck on your new world. =)
From the wiki:
Transferring
To transfer to a different world, go to the character selection screen (using F12 or when you first logon) and select the desired world; you will be logged out while the game makes these changes, which might take 5-30 minutes. You can transfer once every seven days at a cost determined by the destination server population.

High: 1000 Gem.png

The transfer fee is only charged if you have characters on your account; in other words, if your account has no characters or you delete all existing characters first, you will be prompted to select a new home world after creating a new character, free of charge.

Remember, there is a 7-day cooldown between transfers, paid or free.
